Shingles scars
I am so relieved and grateful that I don't have severe postherpatic neuralgia from my bout with shingles about two months ago. I think I'm fully recovered! I don't have any discomfort in the spots where I had blisters, BUT I have been noticing discomfort in my left armpit. This is the same discomfort I felt when I had my blisters. My lymph nodes aren't noticeably swollen. The pain only noticeably occurs when I am stressed out. The semester is ending so lab reports and exams have been keeping me busy. Maybe it's nerve damage? It's a possibility. I've asked a few people and they don't really know...Well here are some pics of my scars. I remember being told that shingles doesn't leave scars if I let them heal properly. As hard as it was, I resisted popping most of my blisters. I still have scars and they look like they'll be there for a while. I'm really fortunate this isn't on my face nor anywhere really visible. Yahhhhhh...I'm so glad I don't have those monsters on my skin. My heart goes out to anyone who battle shingles long term or widespread. I had a small, mild case that cleared up fairly quickly and it feels like it took over my life--a mere fraction of what others deal with.
I still have that band where the tape was at. That band is slowly going away.
